The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ogun State has maintained that it “won fair and square” the gubernatorial elections held on Saturday, March 18, 2023.
In a press statement issued in Abeokuta on Tuesday and signed by the APC’s State Publicity Secreatry, Mr. Tunde Oladunjoye, the party posited that “the election itself was largely peaceful and the outcome was a true reflection of the wishes of the good people of Ogun State.”
The statement reads further: “Despite political thuggery, vote–buying and violence perpetrated by the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP), the Ogun people stood firm and ensured their votes counted.
“We all witnessed how these desperate politicians and their gullible followers, bent on wresting power by force, broke all rules of civility and violated electoral guidelines with reckless abandon.
“Our party, the All Progressives Congress, not only won the election with majority votes, but also won in 12 of the 20 Local Government Areas in Ogun State. In addition, our party won 17 out of the 26 State House of Assembly constituency seats.”
